The Real Madrid attacker is set to become the first player to ever score 17 goals in a single year in Europe’s biggest club competition

Cristiano Ronaldo is set to break another Champions League record, with the Real Madrid forward needing just one more goal to better his own previous best tally of 16 goals in a single calendar year.

The 32-year-old netted 16 times in the Champions League in 2015, and has equalled that number already in the past 11 months, but can become the first player to net 17 goals if he can score in either of Madrid’s final two group games.
